And we’re off…

Great to be on the road again for our 2 week Scotland adventure.
First stop, brekkie then a slow, and very wet, drive northbound, breaking up the journey in Nottingham. Went for a wet walk into Sherwood Forest nr Nottingham - an ancient oak woodland, observing some very old, gnarly oaks including the Major Oak, an 1,100 year old beast that definitely has seen better days! Poor thing being propped up. Looks like it needs putting out of its misery IMO! Mindblowing how old it is though. We had a little robin follow us along for a bit which was cute. Quick browse in the gift shop, made a travel brew in the van and continued on in a northerly direction to our stopover for the night, The Black Horse Inn, Northallerton in North Yorkshire. As we ate there, we were allowed to park up in their car park overnight. The sun finally came out in the evening giving us a nice sunset and then a beautiful, clear, cold starry night - a good omen for the trip, methinks 😉.
Looking forward to heading in to Scotland and doing a good mooch around.Meer informatie
